By far the worst part of tonight. I can't stand these fans they just can't appreciate the product.

Ain't that big a deal, IMO. Certainly not worth getting as mad about it as some are.
Besides, I would have never known that Goldberg and Ryback were the same person without the chants!

Ugh sorry I had too, hopefully the Philly Crowd doesn't follow suit at "Money In The Bank"!

lol nah I think he'll be fine but I laughed so hard when I heard the chants and people's reactions to the chants online.
I didn't think they'd do it but they did.

That was great! It's the age we live in, though.

Nobody chanted Isaac Yankem though. Sad.

I have no problem with the Bray Wyatt gimmick being "ruined". The gimmick itself is fine, but by no means should the Wyatt Family become a "big deal fairly quick." The roster is too top heavy.

I thought no one actually remembered that. Unless Bray Wyatt sucks in Philly, I don't think they're gonna try to screw the gimmick just for the sake of it.

I thought they were chanting for Chris Harris. I just assumed the only person capable of ending the WYatt family's beginning reign of terror was Braden Walker himself.

He'll be fine. People love to chant stupid shit (though its appearantly great the night after Mania but not now?) and you cannot hide people's past. He'll either cut a promo knocking it all down or hopefully just ignore it and keep on the current path.

IMO it's not that big of a deal. The reaction they got before the chants was enough to negate the small chant. It didn't sound like a lot of people. I know people point to Tensai getting Albert chants as a reason why Husky Harris chants could ruin Wyatt, but honestly Tensai was a pretty silly gimmick from the start and kinda deserved the ridicule. I think people are genuinely excited about the Wyatt gimmick. Hell I'm paying attention for the first time in 2 years just for this.
I would be very surprised if it caught on. Albert was around for years when wrestling was way more popular, and has a very distinct look so of course people remember him. Husky Harris was around for a few months and wasn't that important, and he's changed his look enough for the Bray Wyatt gimmick. I doubt the average WWE fan would recognize him, or even remember or care who Husky Harris was.

I honestly barely recognize Bray Wyatt as Husky Harris.
The time away has really done wonders for his appearance....

That entrance was EPIc, I never watch NEXT so I really wasn't sold on this whole 100% bases off the videos . . . but I was won over already

This is why I was having doubts about all those crowd chants way back at the post WM Raw. When a a show's enjoyment is derived and based on audience yelling stuff, it creates an incentive for people to do it again, regardless of context. This is the landscape that night has helped to create.

It's time to give up doing live televised wrestling in front of real crowds. I'm serious. WWE's declined in popularity to the point where most of the people who buy tickets to televised events are whiny manchildren whose enjoyment of the product comes from trying to show off that they're "smart"er than the bookers. There will still be house shows for the fans who actually accept the product at face value and want to see guys live, as opposed to wanting to disrupt everyone else's enjoyment by making a spectacle of themselves on TV. Stop describing the iwc. You're gonna get it they'll bitch you out real hard!

Will Tesnai ruin the Bray Wyatt gimmick the way he ruins his singlet after he somersaults onto guys in the ring corner?

That really killed such a pitch perfect debut segment, but I still have faith that the WWE will handle this stable right

Nope. Won't do any harm. He's a heel and people love to chant shit at heels to feel smarter and/or better than them. WWE will hopefully ignore it and continue on the current path or have him talk about changing.
